Contouring, highlighting, smearing, dabbing: it’s like art and your skin is the canvas. When you apply it to your skin those tiny pores gobble it up. Nom, nom, nom. And if you don’t wash it off before bed or before your hit the gym, your pores can swallow the whole thing. The result? Dull skin and breakouts. So always take of your makeup. Or better yet? Wear nothing at all.

“We had salami pizza for dinner again. I can still taste it on my pores.” – your skin

Your stomach says ‘yes’, but your skin says ‘no. And #letsbefrank, your stomach always wins. What you eat eventually ends up on your face because your skin is a living, breathing thing, babe. Try to keep your oil, carb, caffeine and sugar intake down. Feed your skin foods that are rich with omega-3, such as fish, dark leafy greens, and nuts. That will give those pores something good to munch on.

“I don’t mean to cause a scene and keep breaking out like this but she gives me no choice.” – your skin

“He was gorgeous. I’m blushing. Oh no, I’m not. I’m hot. Real hot.”

That’s too much sun, hun. Keep protected even when it’s overcast. Your skin doesn’t want to look like a pug when it hits 50. It would much rather cuddle those. #letsbefrank.

“It’s like she’s punched me in the face.”

Sounds like you’re having a sleep battle, babe. Dark circles around your eyes can mean you need more sleep and a check of your iron levels too.

As you can see, your skin and I have a lot in common – we can both talk.
